She’s a graduate student at Columbia University getting a Masters in public health, a mother of two children, a yoga evangelist and the current face of Yves Saint Laurent and Louis Vuitton. She’s also a newly minted film director with her documentary “No Woman, No Cry,” which premiered this Saturday at the Tribeca Film Festival.

The documentary is a one-hour exposé on the various barriers -– whether cultural, political, legal or geographical -– women face in accessing quality reproductive health care in the U.S., as well as Tanzania, Bangledesh and Guatemala. The film also includes intimate home videos of a plump and pregnant Christy –- including haunting footage of her hemorrhage while giving birth to her first child, shot by husband Ed Burns.
